Overview

This is a personal, searching and positive book. It is rooted in five perceptions of Christianity from people of different faiths and responses from five Christians. Richard Tetlow sees mutual, loving relationships as priority for human well-being in our British multifaith society. He shows how Christians can listen to and learn from others about themselves for common benefit. He analyses perceptions themselves, including perceptions of God, their whys and wherefores. He challenges traditional Christian theology, structures and worship. Throughout, he asks questions in search of meaning, sincere faith and honest personal experience, both religious and non-religious and seeks recognition of the unity and diversity of all Life. Finally, he suggests ways forward.
